VerifiedHi there,
I am an experienced Medical Specialist.
I am here to address your concerns and provide great service.
There is no known interaction between maca root and birth control.
However, some studies showed maca can elevate certain hormone levels including LH, progesterone and testosterone.
This can interfere with birth control action.
Better avoided.
